Okay, the latest Genazym catalog dropped in the last day or two.

And there's something really curious, perhaps even suspicious, about one of the most remarkable items on auction. This thread will raise the questions. I don't have answers. 1/n

One of the headline items on auction (starting bid of $100,000) is an extraordinary document: the intact pinkas (ledger) of Rabbi Hayim Rephael Sagri, a shadar (emissary, fundraiser) of the Jewish community in Tiberias, from the early 19th c. 2/n
The auction site has some amazing pictures and even some downloadable PDFs of all the rabbis and towns visited by this emissary. (Right in #HaMapah's wheelhouse!) Take a look:
